Is it some DOS app that > you tell which port to use or? Oh yes, I forgot to rant about that in my previous message... Windows app. Don't think it even works on 3.1, but I could be wrong. I had to remove the other modems then install their drives for that modem into Win95 before the install program would find the modem. I can live with a DOS install program; just need to boot off a DOS floppy. Forcing it into such a silly Windows app is very annoying. BTW, it looks like it is just ASCII S records being uploaded so I was half tempted to extract the S record from the executable and upload them manually but didn't really want to mess up the modem.

I have upgraded 0.519 modems no problem using their flash updater. Doesn't mean it isn't broken though. ++ Ascend Users Mailing List ++ To unsubscribe: send unsubscribe to ascend-users-request@bungi.com To get FAQ'd: <<A HREF="http://www.nealis.net/ascend/faq">http://www.nealis.net/ascend/faq</A>> </PRE> <!--X-MsgBody-End--> <!--X-Follow-Ups--> <!--X-Follow-Ups-End--> <!--X-References--> <HR> <STRONG>References</STRONG>: <UL> <LI><STRONG><A HREF="msg09451.html">Re: (ASCEND) updating Hayes Accura...</A></STRONG></LI> <UL> <LI><EM>From</EM>: "Randy E.
